Grandview Cemetery Walks

Grandview Cemetery Walks

Join us on Saturday, October 19th, from 1-3 PM for docent tours of historic Grandview Cemetery.  Serving as West Lafayette's central place of rest for over a century, Grandview Cemetery still operates as a private cemetery today.  On 10/19, we will have volunteers posted at various graves ready to share the history related to some of the more notable residents at Grandview.

Parking for this event will prioritize keeping the cemetery space as clear as possible.  Therefore, we ask folks driving to please only try to park in the cemetery grounds/at the cottage if you have a handicap parking sticker; otherwise we ask you to either 1) park in the parking lot of the WLCSC school district building/bus depot at the corner of Salisbury and Kingston, 2) find a free parking spot along Highland or Kingston Drives, or 3) (if you don't mind the walk) park at Happy Hollow Park and follow the trail that deposits on Salisbury Street; hang a left and you can't miss us.

This event is the part of our 2024 Joint Program Series with the Tippecanoe County Historical Association.  This event is free, and open to the public.  Don't forget to catch a guided-tour at the West Lafayette Caretaker's Cottage Local History Center before you go!
